Effective blog commenting is a great way to simultaneously build relevant backlinks and send incredibly targeted traffic to your site from the comments that you have posted. However, in order to make this strategy work you need to keep in mind a few factors, or else it may just backfire and your effort might prove fruitless. The biggest hurdles faced by IMers and webmasters alike are finding the best blogs to comment on and then making sure that those comments get approved. Here are three ways to help you get much better results from blog commenting.
Read Before Commenting: It's incredibly important that you read most of the blog post you want to comment on before you start typing in your comment. The reason you spend this time is because you don't want your comment to appear spammy in nature and it needs to be impressive enough for it to get approved. It's not important to learn the post inside and out but having a basic gist as to the subject matter and tone can really help you out. You want the blogger to get a nice impression about you, and that will only happen when you know what you're commenting about.
Target Relevant Blogs: While it isn't a good idea to limit your searches to related blogs for comments, commenting only on blogs that relate to yours will have its own advantages. The backlinks you get from relevant blogs will help you get targeted backlinks that actually relate to your own site. There is quite a lot that you can get done in your link building campaigns by focusing your attention on building backlinks with related blogs. This task is quite a lot easier when you take your keywords and use them to subscribe to Google Alerts so that you will be automatically updated by the blogs that relate most to your niche.
Go for High PR Blogs: Even though this is something that isn't mandatory, it pays to post a comment on a blog post that has a page rank seven for example. If you do your homework, you should be able to find blogs that are linked regularly and have highly ranked posts. However, it is important to find blogs that do not already have tons of comment spam because that lowers the values of your own backlinks. If you spend some real time looking for high quality blogs to house your comments, you should see good results.
The more you work with blog commenting the easier it will be to see that streamlining your processes will really work to your advantage. The only method for discovering this process for yourself is to take action on a regular basis and to work past any failures that get in your way. It is important to persist and keep trying to take your blog commenting efforts up a level because sometimes you will write a comment that just won't get approved and that is when you will most need to stick to your goal.
